Request for chicane-free Monza and old Spa for GT Legends
A poster asked for Monza without chicanes and the old Spa for GT Legends, and others wished for 1967 tracks for GTL and rFactor. Political jibes intruded, but Tony Rickard listed on-topic subjects such as GTR2 and the Logitech G25. Dave Henrie explained Simbin used modern tracks because licences and survey data already existed from GTR.

Perhaps the first time Mr. P-doc says anything reasonable: Yes the old
Spa, the Spa of 1967 to the GTL and especially to the rF! Anyone even
considering of making it? And the same question of the 1967's Monza,
Kyalami, Zandvort, Watkins Glen, etc.? And Finnish Elaintarha? Also
it exists as a GPL track... And why not also Chrystal Palace? Etc. of -67?

methinks you all are trying to relive your childhood by getting someone to
convert GPL tracks to rF. Didn't the Noonan utility make that possible?

Just fine. How's it going in your house?
Kind of funny how this group starts to get political postings and then
PapaDoc shows up. :)
Well actually its not that funny because I really am enjoying GT
Legends. Sad to see that America bashing is still the favorite sport
here in USENET Land...that is hilarious consideriing what Europe is
going through these days. Pretty soon all of you will have duct tape
over your mouths to prevent y'all from upsetting your cheap labor.

Well, to be fair, everyone's favorite conservative nut didn't exactly
call for political postings. Besides, I'd like a version of Monza
without chicanes or old Spa too ;)

Mr. S.
hehe...Mikey, its not that America can do no wrong it is that according to much
of the world unable to face the facts of its new dhimmi status America is the
only one doing anything wrong. The Dhimmis would much prefer to march off to
slavery without anyone raising their voices.
When large swaths of the earth believe that it was either the Jews or Bush or
them both combined that managed to perpetuate 9/11 we have a serious gap in the
reality of the world.
Btw New Orleans??? I grew up there and now live just 60 miles away..your point?
It was under the Democrats that much of the damage was done. Jimmy Carter
allowing Khomeni back into power was absurd as was wringing his hands when those
clowns took over the Embassy. Then his Advisors get the bright idea to support
Muslims against the Soviets and it all went to shit after that. Then under
Clinton where the CIA was destroyed...and a blind eye turned to state sponsored
terror.
Reagan was complicit in the support the Muslims idiocy as well...and he was,
much to his everlasting discredit, responsible for allowing the Hezbollah to
chase us out of Lebannon.

It was a bit of a fuck up.
Lets not forget what Jimmy Carter did with his judicial appointments. The
9th Circuit Court of Appalling is a perfect example of his extreme
ineptitude. We may have been a whole lot better off with his brother Billy
as president, as history proves daily..
Its gotten way to boring around here. Between consoles and where a z06 got

No interest in GTR2, Matrox Triplehead2go, Logi G25 wheel, Netkar Pro's
future, GT Legends addons?
GTR2 sounds interesting but the Starforce "politics" get kinda old, very
fast :)
The "Conduct" thread seemed a bit more politics than Racesim :)
Whats to talk about regarding NKP? Until we hear some facts about its
future its kinda hard to talk about.
I mentioned the G25 (first, tee-hee) awhile back but its still to far off to
be a viable conversation for very long.
GTL would be a lot more interesting on the "old tracks" :) As already
mentioned numerous times. Im still trying to digest WHY they decided to do
old cars on modern (chicane infested tracks) instead of the manly man track
of old when "balls" really mattered...
The Matox triplehead is very interesting though. Im a bit suspect on its
performance. I hope to hear more about it soon as Im about ready for an
upgrade.
On another note Ive been playing with Windows Vista beta. Havent had a
chance to load any games yet but in the short time Ive played around Id have
to say Vista is on par with Win98 on its evolutionary path. Much more an
evolution (than revolution) than say from win311 to W95 or W98/2k to XP.
Looks cute but I don't really care much for cute. Seems a step in the right
direction as far as security goes (from the kernel standpoint anyway). I do
like the Media Center as part of the OS instead of the OS. Im off to load
up rFactor and check it out. Creative as usual has done nearly nothing as
far as beta drivers go. 2 Speaker and nothing else. Remember the SB Live
wdm drivers? Reminds me of GPAL :)
Hopefully your subtle reminder gets me back on track :) Occasionally I need
some guidance from a (OT anonymous) sponsor, thks Tony :))

Because they already had the licenses paid for the modern tracks. They
already had all the surveying they needed for the modern tracks. They
already had all the track data completed. Thus a year's worth of work was
not needed and a year's worth of income was not lost.

Not to be confused with a true desire to run the sim on the old,
"ballsy" tracks. That sentiment I agree with entirely. An addon track
pack would fit the bill perfectly, but I suspect that we all know it
will never happen.

I was thinking
along the lines of historic races or goodwood (rich man fun races) but I
guess I was wrong.
Does anyone actually pay to watch these races or are they for the
competitors?
I wonder if Papy paid licensing fee's for the GPL tracks? Hell, call it
Spah and make it as close as possible based on old tape. It bears little
resemblance to the new Spa anyway so couldnt it be considered a fantasy
track?

Rich men with expensive rare toys. Usually this type of race piggy-
backs with an existing series.

Yep...historic weekends are run at many more places than just Goodwood.
Laguna, Road America, just about any track with some history stands a
chance of having an outing.
Now you know ONE of the reasons that 1967 was chosen. I beleive in
1968 the beginnings of a Racing Goverment began to control things.
Perhaps even the FIA. Bruce or one of the real historians might know.

No doubt but nowhere near the fuck up of a hot summer in France. The French
didn't have th excuse that the city was under water when they allowed 15,000 of
their old to die.

Seems odd that those chicanes cannot be simply done away with...but don't ask me
as I have a hard time merely coding HTML...as anyone who has visited my website
will attest to.

Well, you're again proving what a silly nut you are.
New Orleans was and always will be an area with high probability of flooding.
That hot summer was off the scale. Nobody expected it. Hey, let's put several
hundred thousand old people in air conditioned hotel rooms... wait, we don't
have them, let's build them! Should only take about 2 days, right?

They'd probably die of Legionnaire's disease from the air-con instead.
Head for the hills, we're doomed!!!

Or maybe lets do what we did in New Orleans that saved so many people...we went
back and helped the old people get out of the city...ooops.
Guess those summer vacations in France were a mite more important than the old
folks.
